Annual home sales in Madison, New Jersey, have shifted from a consistent 180 to 190 transactions per year to roughly 120 to 130, according to local agent Scott Spelker. The driver, he explains, is not a passing cycle but a structural supply picture rooted in one simple reality – the area is largely built out, ...

Homeowners who secured pandemic-era mortgage rates have a clear reason to stay put: moving would add roughly $1 million in interest over the life of a 30-year loan.

The gap between Houston’s residential market and its coastal neighbor shows what happens when short-term rental speculation meets a correction. Harris County, Texas, currently has roughly six months of housing inventory – enough to classify it as a balanced-to-soft market where sellers need to price carefully and present homes in strong condition. But the sharper ...

The U.S. rental market built aggressively during the pandemic era, particularly in Sunbelt cities like Nashville, Austin, and Dallas. Now much of that new inventory, especially high-end apartments, is sitting partially empty, competing for renters whose budgets have tightened considerably since construction began.
